La Campanella - Paganini/Liszt

[@gregzoller9003]

I’ve always believed this form of accordion must be one of the most difficult instruments to play. Two hands acting independently, like a piano, but unlike a piano you have rows and columns of notes, with no apparent “index” reference (like the shape/position of black/white keys on a piano). You just have “know” where each little button is. So while a piano is a single x-axis of motion, this is x-y axis. Amazing!

[@ronaldl9085]

There are markings on the keys on the left side. You can feel them.

[@JoshuaBowman5]

Some of the buttons have texture on them so you can tell where you are. And a lot of accordions use the circle of fifths for the bass-side buttons. Most instruments have a similar learning curve, and learning the physical characteristics of the instrument is simply a matter of time practiced.

[@d.jeromehauk7577]

And then there’s the operation of the bellows so as to generate the sounds. Truly amazing instrument and equally amazing the player!

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Your comment reminded me of something. My father once said to me, very late in his life: “how I always wished I could play the accordion.” I asked surprised, why daddy?? He answered, “because if you knew how to play the the accordion you would get invited to all the parties”. 1918-2015 ❤ I bet this lovely girl would have gotten invited to all the parties.

[@pianolady19]

This should not be possible...such a complex piece, on that instrument? It's barking mad! But this was breathtaking - her sense of timing, the drama and feeling she expresses, it's gorgeous. Liszt would approve.

[@bladst3r661]

It's piece even played on classic guitar.

I appreciated the relaxed tempo of this performance. So many artists seem to think that the faster they can play it the more impressive it will be. I would rather hear and appreciate each note in its place.

[@rockybernard2997]

Bravo on your comment and I agree with your stance. Does get annoying when a piece is performed so rapidly, it's no more than imitating accelerated 'playback speed,' obscuring glorious details and subtleties of the composition. A computer can play it even faster, or even play a piece into a familiar blur of sound, but then, computers have no soul. Keep the Human in these beautifully written pieces. Who is teaching today's artists to compete with computerized performances? They do today's artists no favors.
